Build failure log

Hi!

I am planning to update to the latest mono release available,
unfortunately, devel/newtonsoft-json does not build with the updated
lang/mono :-( 

I tried to fix or find a workaround for this but without any kind of
success and was hopping that you could give an eye to this and maybe
help for fixing it? 

The updated lang/mono port is available here:
https://github.com/smortex/bsd-sharp/tree/master/lang/mono

Thank you for your feedback!

Hi,

I have looked into it. It seems like the problem is with the build system I have currently. I am not into Mono much more. But so far I figured out is the problem is with this line

(cd ${WRKSRC}/Src/Newtonsoft.Json/bin/Release/Net45 && \
		${SETENV} ${MAKE_ENV} ilasm /dll /key:../../../Dynamic.snk Newtonsoft.Json.il)

Any heads up would be appreciable.

I tried to execute the mono disassembler. It should produce some intermediate language code (like a machine specific disassembler would do):

monodis Newtonsoft.Json.dll --output=Newtonsoft.Json.il
Segmentation fault (core dumped)

The monodis source code is c and browsing through the mono revisions reveal no changes in monodis source code since current ports version (4.2.3.4).

newtonsoft-json has been updated to the latest 9.0.1 which compiles with the current mono version. Can you test the same please once again.

Hello, Muhammad!

Using one of the recent versions of Mono:

Any Heads Up ?

Hello, Muhammad!

The same result using Mono Stable 4.4.2.11/f72fe45 Sun Jul 31 18:33:16 UTC 2016.

Comment 9 Romain Tartière freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-08-06 12:10:35 UTC
Muhammad, can you explain the monodis(1) / ilasm(1) commands reason?

With mono 2.6.0, monodis succeeded only to let ilasm(1) reperting the generated .il file was invalid…

However, just removing these two command seems to be okay:
https://github.com/smortex/bsd-sharp/commit/6a7e2ba1b173856b90e196c3be97b23dbb05bb35

I must not be undestanding correctly the build process, as what I see is:

1. xbuild(1) builds Newtonsoft.Json.dll;
2. monodis(1) "disassembles" Newtonsoft.Json.dll into Newtonsoft.Json.il;
3. ilasm(1) "assembles" Newtonsoft.Json.il into Newtonsoft.Json.dll

That's why I tried to skip steps 2 and 3… What are they required for?
Comment 10 Muhammad Moinur Rahman freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-08-06 12:59:38 UTC
(In reply to Romain Tartière from comment #9)
So far I understand xbuild doesn't create a portable version of the library or executable hence we need those two steps more. However we can try it out without those two lines and check what happens(I mean break .. :P)
Comment 11 Romain Tartière freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-08-06 13:08:33 UTC
Only devel/google-gdata seems to depend on this port, and I could build it successfuly.  I have no idea about how to check that the build ports is Okay or not.  Since you are also the maintainer of devel/google-gdata, maybe you will have an idea about what to check?

Thanks!
Comment 12 Muhammad Moinur Rahman freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-08-06 13:15:34 UTC
Google-gdata seems to be no more under active development due to their new API. However I can see that multimedia/banshee seems to depend on it. Let me check that out.
Comment 13 Romain Tartière freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-08-06 13:19:23 UTC
multimedia/banshee is also a dying project… :-)

I am currently rebuilding all ports depending on mono in a Jail, so banshee is included.

If everything goes well and you agree, I will remove the monodis/ilasm lines when updating lang/mono.

Thanks

Hi Roman .. I believe you better skip those lines and commit Mono 4.4. Rest we will take care on demand.
Comment 15 Carsten Larsen 2016-08-07 16:30:03 UTC
(In reply to Muhammad Moinur Rahman from comment #10)
Judging from the official .NET documentation portable executables (PE) is not a feature used in FreeBSD related projects.

I'd be surprised if removing them would make any difference.

so far google-gdata and banshee works fine without those 2 lines. Hence I am removing those two lines.
Comment 17 Romain Tartière freebsd_committer freebsd_triage 2016-08-08 17:32:25 UTC
Great, I am almost ready to commit mono 4.4.2.11.

Will commit the update to devel/newtonsoft-json unless you did so before :)

Thanks!
